      @@amy.cycling.adventures It was my first sizable outing, up to the north pole in Norway then over to Sweden.
      My steed was of the 26" variety in those days and for some reason I hadn't discovered clipless pedals. I was also riding along with my guitar, fishing equipment and a raindeer antler.
      Yet, for all the inefficiencies of my method of cycling I decided to 'save weight' and had munched through the last of my food as I was passing Antwerp on the way to Brugge. My 'to be' host awaiting my arrival had a feast prepared so I was niavely unconcerned and believed my tire of choice (conti travel contacts) were impenetrable to all but the sharpest of dragon teeth.
      So it was to my surprise when the wall of the tire gave out, in the dead of night in the excited rain so typical of Belgium. I just remember feeling so surprisngly calm, I suspect it was out of a sense of survival.
      One positive as I knew the roads and region quite well so I could imagine in my head every length of every road that awaited me, I eventually arrived in a somewhat narcoleptic state and started to fall aslep whilst mid meal, but what a meal it was :D

    I had a flat tire today. Used a CO2 Cartridge for the first time. I think I like the pump better.
    Also, I've had the valve core spin out like that. I left the presta/schrader adapter on until I got back. Or used a multi tool with pliers to tighten it.

    I had a similar problem with my valves. Topeak mini pumps have a little black release button on the flexible valve hose that releases some of the pressure and helps a bit. Just have to make sure you have a valve tightening key....or a topeak chainbreaker tool bit on their multitool has a noggin (techinical term) on it that works well as a valve tool. Just google it.
